Mage Veja

Chapter 286
Da da da--

The war horse neighed, and the footsteps were like thunder.

An army of 1.2 entered the Tully Grand Canyon from the outside. This army is equipped with high-level military forces such as magicians and professionals. From the perspective of spirit, it is obvious that this is a war-baptized army. .

opposite of this.

Although the soldiers on Vega's defense line are known as the "victory" division and elite troops of the Seventh Army, they may not be as disoriented as ordinary troops at this critical moment, but the tension and panic on the surface are inevitable.

"Only war is the way to raise soldiers."

Veigar looked at his troops and sighed: "The east has indeed been peaceful for too long. This kind of troops is not the elite division I want at all. How can an army that doesn't know how to enjoy the smoke of gunpowder be called an elite division?"

That's right.

The troops Veigar would most like to command are those that desire peace, but enjoy war.

Does this statement sound contradictory?

But that's the way it is, and here's a living example—himself.

Veigar was indeed enjoying ease and peace, and that sense of security made him immersed in it, and even gave him the illusion of whether he was no longer used to war, but now it seemed that it was just unfounded worry.

Maybe it's because of being at ease for too long.

Facing the battlefield where even the air is filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke and time seems to be frozen, Veigar is excited all over. How long has it been since he felt this feeling?It's been about three months now.

For three full months, I never experienced war.

Looking at the faintly visible Kingdom Army in front of him, Veigar took a deep breath and inhaled the unique taste of war into his lungs. He was as intoxicated by it as if tasting fine wine, and he didn't realize until now——

War, that's great.

Pulling out the long crossed sword symbolizing power, Veigar pointed forward: "The whole army! Get ready!"

"scare!"

A huge shield made of steel blocks the front, cold arrows rest on the strings of the full moon, and the magician who manipulates the elements sings loudly. The war of blood and fire begins here, here... cowardice, cowardice, death, sadness, pain will be forgotten.

weak?Strong?
Only here, the winner!
boom boom-

Magic is roaring, arrows are speeding, professionals are roaring, and cold spears are harvesting life.

The two armies collided, one side was fearless and the other side was unbreakable. The two sides fought in this canyon.

Due to Veigar's adequate preparations, reasonable defensive formation and magician layout, the Royal Army who rashly engaged in hand-to-hand combat suffered heavy losses. Coupled with the advantage of being the defensive side in the first round, it is now about 46 points.

Is English afraid?
If he had been afraid, he would not have chosen to fight head-to-head when the scouts found out that there was a blocking force in front of them. After so many large and small battles in the eastern part of the dynasty, he had long since discovered that the dynasty army and the imperial reinforcements were all superficial people.

As long as you are not afraid of death, they will only be afraid.

As long as you fight to the death, they will run away.

How could these comfortable poultry understand the cornered United Kingdom and their determination to win or die.

Ingril swung his longsword.

His loud roar seemed to overwhelm the roar of the battle, reaching the ears of every soldier: "Warriors of the kingdom, please show your determination to die, and teach these comfortable poultry what to call— "

"A real war!"

The commander came to the front line in person, and the morale of the kingdom's soldiers was greatly increased. At this moment, the battle situation was turned upside down. Although Veigar's troops had undergone the most rigorous training, they have been at peace for too long, and they have forgotten that war is always—win or die .

“It’s pretty good to be able to do this.”

Looking at the overall situation, Vega smiled. He knew that it is impossible to build a truly elite army overnight. It is already very good to be able to fight to this level today. If he keeps fighting against the Royal Army, he will be really surprised. .

"Adjutant, order to retreat."

Vega got on his horse and prepared to withdraw to the second line of defense: "Signal to allow the 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 7th regiments on the flanks to carry out cover operations. We need to trap the Royal Army here. At the same time, let the other party's generals know that fighting light It is not enough to have the courage to win or die, and I am not the kind of third-rate general who insists on turning a blocking battle into a frontal battle."

Following Veigar's order, the entire army began to retreat at full speed.

Veigar led the way, followed by the professional and magician units, followed by the faster cavalry, and finally the largest number of infantry.

If there is no flanking 1, 3, 5, and 7 regiments to cover and retreat.

Then Veigar's troops will definitely suffer heavy losses. The only ones who can escape are the cavalry and high-level armed forces. But with the cover of the flanking troops on the top of the canyon, they can easily pull to the second line of defense, and they can also take a chance. Kingdom Army.

If the Kingdom Army continues to pursue, it will only suffer heavy losses.

This is Vega's understanding of the blocking war. This time the blocking war does not need to defeat the opponent, but only delays time.

"Hahaha, warriors of the kingdom, you have seen it."

Ingril sneered and pointed at the retreating heavy brigade: "This is the poultry of the empire and the kingdom, they are afraid, they are afraid, so they are running away, the whole army pursues, the victory belongs to the kingdom!"

"adjutant."

Ingril ordered while chasing: "Now that the two armies have separated, the air force can conduct magic bombing. I want this force to be buried here today."

"Master, I'm afraid this won't work."

The adjutant pointed to the terrain and said: "In this case, the aviation unit can't see the ground troops at all. Only when they descend to a certain height can they magically bomb the ground troops. This is too risky for the aviation unit."

"Then forget it."

After thinking about it for a while, Ingril said, "If you can't keep the high-level armed forces, you should keep their main force. Without the main force, those high-level military forces can't make any waves."

Ingril chased for a hundred meters.

During the pursuit, he suddenly found that although the imperial army was fleeing, the formation was not in disorder. He raised his head and looked towards both sides of the canyon, feeling uneasy for no reason. If an ambush was set up, wouldn't he suffer heavy losses?

A chill hit.

Ingril's lips were a little pale, and the more he chased, the more uneasy he became. He began to realize that he had chased too deeply?

"Why does this weird atmosphere feel familiar?"

"No, that brat won't graduate until two years later, right?"

Ingril's intuition told him that this strange war atmosphere had a feeling of déjà vu, and this feeling had been subconsciously forgotten by him, and he probably would never take the initiative to think of it in his life.

And the other side.

Veigar has already learned that the enemy army has been chasing for a thousand meters, and the whole army has entered the ambush circle.

He couldn't help laughing and said: "Is the opposing commander really so stupid? My original intention was to use the flank troops to harass the Royal Army, as long as the opposing commander sees our neat retreat formation and the surrounding terrain They should stop chasing them, and if they stopped chasing them at that time, they would only lose a few soldiers at most."

"What if the Royal Army continues to pursue?" Adjutant Yi Luo asked excitedly.

A bright smile appeared on the corner of Vega's mouth: "If you continue to pursue, when the entire army is caught in an ambush circle, I bet they will lose [-]% of their troops even if they are not wiped out."

"This...how is it possible?" Adjutant Yi Luo stammered.

Vega also ignored Yiluo's surprised expression, he took out his pocket watch and looked at the time: "Calculate the time, Dandry's attack should start, I didn't expect that this blocking battle turned into an ambush, I really want to thank the Royal Army Commander."

It is possible to save troops as much as possible while blocking the enemy.

This is the most perfect ending for Veigar, and after this war, presumably the entire heavy armored brigade will gain tremendous growth, which is a crucial experience for an elite force.

at the same time.

At both ends of the canyon, the flanking troops looked down at the battle situation below.

The head of the 1st Regiment put down the binoculars and said: "Master Deputy Brigadier, the time is almost up, and the Royal Army has all entered the ambush circle. This time, we will definitely win a battle. It is indeed the plan of the Brigadier. It is so perfect. .”

Ignoring the head of the 1st regiment, Dandry's eyes flickered with madness.

Commander 1 noticed something was wrong immediately, and he said anxiously: "Master Deputy Brigadier, please order an attack, otherwise the Royal Army will rush out of the ambush circle."

"Order."

Hearing these two words, the head of the 1st regiment let out a sigh of relief. He had already drawn out the cross sword and was ready to fight.

But at this moment, an unexpected order came from Dandry: "No one is allowed to attack without my permission, and anyone who violates the order will be executed on the spot!"
